Introducing Mint & Needle Wellness: A Smarter, Safer, Long-Term Approach to Health & Weight Loss
At Mint & Needle, we’ve always believed that true confidence starts from within—how you feel, how you function, and how well your body performs for you every single day. That’s why we’re proud to introduce our newly expanded Wellness Program, created to support both metabolic health and sustainable weight loss through a clinical, whole-body approach.
This isn’t about quick fixes. It’s about optimizing your long-term health.

Why We Created This Program
Weight loss injectables such as GLP-1 agonists have surged in popularity, but the rise in use has brought significant complications for many patients nationwide. We’re seeing increasing cases of:
-
Muscle loss and “skinny fat” body composition
-
Nutrient deficiencies
-
Hormonal disruption
-
Difficulty discontinuing GLP medications
-
Low energy, digestive issues, hair loss
-
Hospitalizations related to side effects
At Mint & Needle, we know that “skinny fat” is not cute—and it’s definitely not healthy.
Our goal is not to shrink the number on the scale.
Our goal is to support your entire system, preserve muscle, enhance your metabolism, and create a sustainable approach to weight and wellness that truly lasts.
Meet the Leader of Our Wellness Program: Evelyn Fuentes, NP-C

Our Wellness Program is led by Evelyn Fuentes, NP-C, injector and board-certified Nurse Practitioner with more than a decade of experience in clinical medicine. Evelyn brings together the best of functional medicine, advanced hormone optimization, peptide therapy, and aesthetic medicine to help patients feel—and function—their absolute best.
Her career began in critical care, where she developed a deep respect for the body’s complexity, resilience, and natural rhythms. As she transitioned into aesthetic medicine, Evelyn noticed a growing gap: patients wanted to feel good on the outside, but their internal health wasn’t keeping up.
Motivated to bridge that divide, she pursued extensive training in hormone and peptide therapy, metabolic health, and wellness medicine. Today, she uses a precision-based, evidence-backed approach to help patients:
-
Improve metabolic function
-
Preserve and build lean muscle
-
Balance hormones
-
Increase energy and mental clarity
-
Support longevity
-
Boost confidence from the inside out
Evelyn’s philosophy is simple: wellness should enhance every part of you—inside and out.

A Safer, Smarter Approach to Weight Loss
Traditional weight loss drugs can be helpful, but only when paired with proper medical oversight. Without that foundation, many patients experience:
-
Rapid muscle loss
-
Metabolic slowdown
-
Hormone imbalance
-
Long-term dependency
-
Nutrient depletion
Our approach solves this by pairing any medically-supervised weight loss tool with peptides, supplementation, and continuous monitoring that protect your muscle and metabolism.
You’re not just losing weight. You’re building a stronger, healthier body.
Mint & Needle’s Wellness Program helps you build a body that supports longevity, resilience, and everyday vitality—through an intentional, medically-grounded approach.
This is optimization—inside and out.
This Is Wellness, Elevated.
With advanced testing, peptide and hormone optimization, personalized supplementation, and continuous support, Mint & Needle offers a wellness experience that evolves alongside you.
This is not another trend.
This is a wellness partnership that prioritizes long-term health, metabolic strength, and whole-body vitality.
